I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK

I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK! It does bring me great joy even when it is hard because I know this is the Lord's work and it is His gospel and it is my duty ( as well as all of us) to share the gospel. But not only is it my DUTY, it is my BLESSING and a PRIVILEDGE.

It's beginning to look like Christmas.

Sister Denison and I got a REAL CHRISTMAS TREE !

Guess what we got for Christmas?

Fun footie pajamas!!!! The members really take good care of their missionaries. Thank you!

This Church is true!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Christ's church. We do have a loving Heavenly Father who knows us and loves each and everyone of us. I know tha Joseph Smith saw God the Father and Jesus Christ. I know that through the spirit of revelation,Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon and that it was written for our day. I know that whoever reads it and prays and ponders the Book of Mormon will come nearer to God and will know for themselves that the Book of Mormon is true through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Part of my New Year's resolution

to be truly penitent and a humble seeker of happiness. We know that as we are repentant we are applying the Atonement in our lives, we are being humble and submissive to the will of the Lord. When we are seeking true happiness, we are obedient to what the Lord has commanded and what he will command. We know that obedience to his commandments brings the choicest blessings.

It is going to be a GREAT year !

I know the Book of Mormon was written for our day and can be applied to our lives in any aspect of our lives. We all can see and liken the scriptures to us when we study by faith with an open and prayerful heart. It has been a real source of comfort and peace to know that Heavenly Father loves me and my Savior knows me and knows exactly what I'm going through. I know the Book of Mormon is true, it is the word of God,and was written by prophets in the Americas over 2000 years ago. I know that an ordinary humble young man named Joseph Smith was called by God to restore Christ's Church here on earth again and that God gave Joseph the power to translate the Book of Mormon so we can have a further witness, light and knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
